Practice Building Resource Break Down
/Here at b.mindful Louisville, we provide our tenants with a variety of different amenities included in the price of their rent. View all rental benefits here.
One of the most useful extras provided to all renters is our clinical and practice building resources. These include digital information, printed books and in person consultation groups.
My journey in planning and starting my businesses taught and continues to teach me so many lessons. This path has also allowed me to meet a lot of clinicians in my community and opened my eyes to how many mental health and wellness providers are out there, wanting to do private practice and don’t. The most common reasons I hear are because the process seems “too overwhelming” and/or because they “just don’t know where to start”.
With my wheels already turning from other business ventures, they started spinning more and more after the realization that hard working, well trained professionals are not getting into private practice because they think there are too many barriers to entry. I thought there really should be one space clinicians can go to in there community to get all these integral private practice needs met. Since this resource and location wasnt a thing in Louisville, KY it also sent me on a thought journey back to the time when I was opening my practice and what allowed me to go forth with my decision to tackle the barriers and open up shop.
I was lucky to have a great clinical and personal support network that provided me with endless tips and tricks on what to do and what to avoid. (FREE)
I was a podcast junkie and consumed any and all of the practice building information out there. Look at some of my favorites here. (FREE)
I joined and lurked the crap out of any and all clinically focused FB groups out there. (FREE)
I Googled, Googled, and Googled just about any and everything that I didn’t already know (which was a lot, ha)! (FREE)
I then added up all the hours spent doing all of this, Googling marketing strategies, figuring out what SEO was, and searching for that one resource that housed EVERYTHING I needed to know…but…
The frustrating thing was that I didn’t find that RESOURCE. Just bits and pieces and fragments all leading me to buy consulting or coaching from someone who had “all the answers”.
Nothing against consultants and coaches, I think they are great and so needed and you should hire one if you have the disposable income. But at the time I just didn’t have the finances to do that on top of paying my personal and business expenses.
So after opening up b.mindful Louisville, little by little I started to gather more and more information and used my lived experiences to compile a practice building resource that I would provide to the tenants. The intention behind this resource was to just make it a bit easier for others to enter into the private practice world if they wanted to. Systemize the process a bit and have a compiled list of “to dos” and resources to make others lives a little bit easier. Though we all love Google, we don’t want to spend all our spare time on it. We've got more important things to do!
Today this resource has grown and evolved so much. It includes over 100 slides jam packed with applicable knowledge on the logistical must haves, the clinical must haves and what you need to keep doing in order to maintain a thriving practice. It also includes scripts, templates and spreadsheets to systemize your practice and just make your life just a bit easier.
It doesn’t matter if you rent 4 hours a week or 4 days a week, all of the tenants of b.mindful Louisville have access to our online and print practice building resources.
I want the tenants of b.mindful Louisville to have ease in their lives. Not a lot that goes into our chosen careers brings us “ease” therefore I want our offices and amenities to create that for them.
On top of the digital and print business building resources we provide, we also host a monthly private practice consultation group for tenants and community members to come together and share various business-related tips, tricks and processes. The idea is to share the wealth of knowledge out there with each other so everyone can spend more time focusing on your clients and getting back to their life outside the office even quicker. Check out our consultation offerings under our events section here.
At b.mindful Louisville, we handle just about everything and all the clinician has to do is maintain their business and take care of their clients.
